  • As populations around the world age and increasingly need to tap into accumulated wealth, there could be a growing focus on and demand for sound decumulation practices.
  • A key finding from our analysis is that decumulation strategies should target an expected return above that of the withdrawal rate to help mitigate the erosion of capital over time.
  • Decumulation strategies have a long time horizon, and it's therefore important to structure the governance process in a way that will minimize the temptation or even the ability to make changes in reaction to short-term events.

Important Risks: Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Security prices fluctuate in value depending on general market and economic conditions and the prospects of individual companies. • Foreign investments may be more volatile and less liquid than US investments and are subject to the risk of currency fluctuations and adverse political, economic and regulatory developments. These risks may be greater, and include additional risks, for investments in emerging markets. • Investments linked to prices of commodities may be considered speculative. Significant exposure to commodities may be subject to greater volatility than traditional investments. The value of such instruments may be volatile and fluctuate widely based on a variety of factors. • Fixed income security risks include credit, liquidity, call, duration, and interest-rate risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. • Investments in high-yield (“junk”) bonds involve greater risk of price volatility, illiquidity, and default than higher-rated debt securities.
